I am staying with two roomates who have allowed me to stay in their apartment with the agreement to pay rent. I have paid rent for Jan. Feb. March and April. April is not yet over but they are saying that I have to leave even though I have paid already for this month. I have not posed no threat to them or anything like that. They have basically given me only few hours notice. Is this right? What should I do?

Even though you are not on the lease you have establish residency. You are a month to month tenant and they must give you a 30 day notice. Any other clue or info that would explain their decision to boot you out?

But my name is not on the lease... just theirs... they still have to give me 30 days notice?

Yes, they lease from the landlord, and you sub rent from them, you have a legal agreement with the two people on the lease, and you have a verbal month to month rental. So they are requierd to give you proper notice to move out as a renter.

Markia, please reread my last post. Yes, you are not on the lease but they must give you a 30 day notice.

Legally you have established residency. Hopefully you have cancelled checks to prove the rental payments. This means they are your landlords and have to adhere to whatever rules are imposed upon landlords about evicting tenants. Unfortunately, NC Law requires only one week's notice for a month to month tenant. (see this thread:

I would approach them and tell them you are sorry it didn't work out, but you need more time to find a place to stay ask for a little more time.

I can go along with Scott but I thought that part of the law only applied to mobile homes and manufactured housing units. "where the tenancy involves only the rental of a space for a manufactured home " In any event, you have gotten some good advice and hopefully they will lighten up on their demands.

The way I read it, the 60 days is what applies to mobile or manufactured homes.
